CONCLUSION

To conclude the report, I would say that this internship experience was an amazing learning
experience.
It opened up the curtain between academic knowledge and its application in real life. It gave me a
taste of what I am going to do in my future. I felt privileged to be a part of the legal fraternity and I
was also lucky to have interned with Advocate Pawan Upadhyay. From him, I not only got to
learn the quirks of the legal profession as a lawyer but I also got to know the importance of having
a wide social base and the importance of networking.

One thing that will always stay with me is to be a successful and a passionate litigator, one needs to
love the heavy case files and the voluminous books and love to be surrounded by them and feel
awed by them. Without exposure to the real world, one cannot understand the analytical and
positive application of law and jurisprudence and the actual function and the structure of law.
What we study is the body, but what we have learned from this internship is a mechanical of this
body.
I was surprised to see how the simplest of laws were applicable in the most difficult of situations
and how loopholes leave so much scope for evolution and improvisation today in this field. I also
observed that law is everything but constant and with the same soul as of a human. In other words,
or as that of our counsel, laws may come and laws may repeal, but they must always stay true to our
original values and in case of laws, they must always be faithful to the constitution, which is the
most supreme law of the land and governs all equals and unequal in respect of each other.
